One of Medellin’s most popular areas for tourists and locals alike, you’ll find Parque Lleras oozing with music and good drinks once the sun goes down.

You can either enjoy dancing the night away at one of the nearby clubs or bars that border the park. Or, you can buy a bottle of the local aguardiente and head to the park to drink it in the open-air as you mingle with locals looking to practice their English.

If you’re into dancing and want to enjoy local music, then check out La Chingona. Or, head a few streets over in any direction and enjoy a host of cool, trendy bars with outdoor seating and good vibes.
